LISTEN WITH YOUR EYES – LOOK WITH YOUR NOSE – SMELL WITH YOUR EAR, by Marie-Cécile Reber

Musician and Composer with electronic musical instruments. Lives in Lucerne. Reber is searching for sound in nature and, having dealt with microscopic noise structures for years, she has found ways to transform them into pictorial soundscapes and use them as elements for her compositions. The performance of her compositions is often placed within a natural environment (within a natural setting) with the result that the natural sound environment blends into her composition and vice versa. www.mc-reber.ch

365 ARK 366, by laure.is.listening@gmail.com

This score is about recognising and owning inner musicianship. Its intimate approach, on the oneiric threshold, is tailored to stimulate, awaken and amplify the foundational crossing plans at the core of the Deep Listening practice. Paced throughout 365 days + 1 the score is offered more as a ‘curatorial structure’ for the Listener to engage with and, almost inadvertently, discover, discern, increase, deepen and harvest the building blocks of his innate musicality.
